<<Readings: Jillian Levine-Sisson + Scott McCormick
How do Trekkies celebrate their love? In Klingon, obviously. Though
Jillian’s parents requested a traditional ceremony, during the
reception, two friends delivered a dinner blessing in the fictional
alien tongue. The Shakespearean sonnet and a passage from “King John”
were translated by Marc Okrand, the linguist who developed Klingon,
who happens to be an acquaintance of Scott’s. One could even say the
couple’s love was written in the stars: On their first date, Jillian
told Scott, “I did some spying on you on Facebook. I know you’re a
Star Trek fan, but I’m a fan of [spin-off] ‘Deep Space Nine.’” “I was
like, ‘Who says that? DS9 fans are a rare breed.’”>>
